⤷ PAIRING SDV - Dad!Alex x gn!reader

⤷ WORD COUNT 412

⤷ TAGS so much fluff, it's ALL the fluff!! pregnancy/adoption, Alex is such a girl dad omg, sports ig, and just soft and sweet

⤷ NOTES Welcome my beloved Anon!! Again I went with gender neutral due to no specified gender ^w^

Like I said before he is the softest dad he absolutely adores his kids

Alex was there for everything during your pregnancy or adoption process and never once let go of your hand- (don't try to shove him he has an iron grip)

He was not afraid to let himself absolutely sob and bawl once he got to hold your child, all blubbery saying how excited he was <3

He's another big supporter of what his kid wants to do but he will HIGHLY encourage sports

When your kid started walking right before a big touchdown in his game he cheered SO loud

He had a lot of issues with his own father and while he knows he's better then that man will ever be he still needs reassurance that he won't turn out like him

Your kid absolutely loves their granny and grampy, George may be a grouchy old coot but he will let the kid join him on his wheelchair to ride around and you know Evelyn is sending all the sweets she possibly can home with them

but despite all the activity and energy some of Alex's favorite moments is just lying in bed with you, your toddler cuddled up between you as they mumble in their sleep

"Shh, look." You smile warmly as you point down at your toddler's messy form. They were spread out, limbs in every which way on top of your blankets loud snores echoing in the room.

Alex wakes up groggy, normally waking early but finding himself surprisingly comfortable waking at noon and realizing it's because of his spouse and child being all snuggled up before him.

A warm and soft grin splits across his face as he presses a morning kiss to your lips. Both of you lean down to press a kiss to the small kid's cheeks making them giggle awake before you and Alex absolutely attack them in kisses.

All Alex can think about is how great it is to have you here with him and how much he loves his little family.

Of course with him it won't stay little for very long- he wants as many kids as you'll allow him

His goal is an entire football team

If you ever need help around the farm he makes it into a game every time

"Who can carry the most rocks to the chest" or "animal care" are their favorites

The domesticity is domesticating omfg

I just love them sm

PLEASE THAT'S SO CUTE-

EDDSWORLD BOYS RELATIONSHIP HEADCANONS

betcha wasn't expecting eddsworld content huh 🔥

note: these are based off of the purely fictional characters. not related to the real people, please keep that in mind!

EDD

cracks a lot of jokes because he likes seeing you laugh

listens intently to when you rant or talk about anything, esp your interests

he doodles you a lot and slides little drawings of you two together under your door

likes physical affection, but respects it if you don't

bro is the type of guy to bend down and kiss your hand

if you're ever feeling down or scared, he'll sit with you where you're comfortable and listen to you talk about what's wrong

the two of you like to make breakfast together for the rest of the gang when you two wake up early

gentleman at first, then goofs off much more later in the relationship

TOM

he broke up w susan for u

speaking of susan, he plays little tunes that remind him of you often

lets you hug tommee bear

cuts down on alcohol so he doesn't ruin anything between you two

thinks you're really interesting, and always wants to know more about you

you two play video games together when you both can't sleep

during christmas, he bites back any negative comments for your sake

you guys like to show each other your music taste, and just head bang if you both like rock

isn't as affectionate as edd, and has a harder time expressing emotions

but he'll try his best for you

MATT

it's kind of shocking that he loves someone (almost) as much as he loves himself

he compliments you a lot, and the two of you like to do things like paint nails, go shopping

he is very protective though, and if you ever get hit on he'll be on their ass and shooing them away (not after cussing them out)

actually feels insecure sometimes, like he isn't good enough for you

you make him meals a lot,, he's banned from the kitchen

forces you out of bad habits and whines if you refuse

wants to spend every waking moment with u

you introduce him to music and you two often lay in bed and just listen to a song whilst sharing earbuds

clings to you

steals your clothes without asking and goes 'teehee' when you ask about it

TORD

he's a pretty quiet guy, so a lot of the time things are silent between you two

but you like it that way, and so does he

he'll do subtle things to show his affection, like making you breakfast or buying you something you need

cares about your health , mental and physical

like tom, you two will often stay up gaming and goofing off

doesn't really know how to respond to physical affection, so he awkwardly wraps his arm around you on the couch if you lean into him

appreciates u a lot but doesn't really say anything other than "i love you"

shows you his silly little inventions and gets giddy but tries to hide it when you ask questions or seem interested

you guys share clothes a lot

Can I pretty please get some Poly Cove, Baxter, and Derek x reader 🥺

I am desperate and just want to know how they'd be like all together in a closed relationship- how they treat each other, MC, how they act with the other's families, etc. etc.

PS. You don't have to do this request but It's so hard to find poly prompts for them 😭

PPS. Can I be 💫 Anon?

↠ Cove x Baxter x Derek x gn!Reader HCs ↞

* word count ↠ 2743 * tags ↠ gender neutral reader, fluff, a little angst but it's okay, closed relationship polyamory, meeting the family, a very implied slow burn, bax is a little bit of an idiot, the opposite of proof read

* notes ↠ YES THANK YOU ANON 🙏 I'm polyamorous myself, and the lack of content makes me so sad sometimes. Glad to know there's a market aside from me and @starance

You and Cove were the first two together

After the awkwardness of your first kiss, and the dancing around it, and figuring out the terms and oh god do you tell your families???

And believe me it was awkward for a while

Not a bad kind, just the growing pains of a new relationship- of a first relationship

And then there was Derek.

Who has absolutely had a crush on you and Cove for like- ever? Is that a time frame? He didn't really know, but it felt right.

He didn't realize he was allowed to feel that for both of you for a while.

He thought he had to choose and it broke him a little, because he adored being around the both of you too much to ever choose

He was always supportive of you and Cove after you two told him you were dating

But you couldn't help from notice a little longing in his eyes when you and Cove were couple-y

Or how he withdrew just that slight bit if you got a little too close to romantic touches instead of platonic cuddles

It went from unnoticeable to unbearably obvious as time went on and years passed

You and Cove stressed about it together

For you, you had always stressed about what being in a relationship with Cove would mean for your trio

You'd heard horror stories from books and school acquaintances about loosing friends after getting into a relationship

And Cove

Was less worried about if your relationship had anything to do with it, and more worried about losing part of his home

The trio, your family, they'd become integral to his perception of home

It never felt quite right when you all weren't right by him

So, naturally, you both team up to confront him!

And it went-

Well, about as well as you'd expect? Derek was usually the one to carry the blunt of emotional intelligence, and even then all three of you were dense as hell

None of you are really sure how it slipped, just that it did. Maybe Derek was the one to tell you two, apologizing because "that's probably weird, isn't it?"

You were all versed in the queer community, but had never delved into what polyamory really was

Or maybe it slipped from you, a hesitant ramble spiraling into comparing the way you felt for Derek a little to closely to the way you do Cove

Maybe even it was Cove, thinking maybe Derek pulled away for his comfort- maybe he noticed Cove's awkwardness and red face and pulled away so as to not upset him

Maybe he explained, flustered, stumbling over his words, that he only reacted that way to Derek because he liked him in that same romantic way

But no matter how it happened

It absolutely did happen

Before any of you could regret it, or really even think on the realization that it was all mutual, Cove blurted out

"Do you wanna go out with us?"

Before either of you could respond, he stumbled out words asking if it was okay with you and that Derek didn't have to, you could just stay friends, I didn't mean to impl-

You cut him off, agreeing with the sentiment

And finally

There's the Derek Suarez smile.

You and Cove nearly got knocked to the ground with the force of the hug, vague words of agreement from him mixed with the three of you laughing

You were all still nervous, you didn't know how to go forward with it all-

And you went to your moms for help, because surely they'd know how this all worked, right?

But it all settled, and you three were still you, just, you know- Liz got to tease you that extra bit more

And it stayed like that, until you were all 18 and you hit a little bump in the smoothness

Because someone you saw that same summer you kissed Cove was back

When you first saw Baxter way back then, you just thought he was pretty and nice to talk to, to dance with

Really, you thought the two of you could be friends

But, as many people visiting Sunset Bird do, he disappeared

A little disappointing, but you only knew him for a day.

And then he showed up, the new guy on the street

You didn't quite remember his face until he talked about the soiree

And well, over the summer, perhaps you fall a little in love with him

It's not your fault! He's very charming, and he's sweet

It's not the same intensity and familiarity that your relationship with Cove and Derek brings, but it's fun and you could see him being a long-term partner

And then, of course, he leaves for another five years.

"Did I do something wrong?" The words spilt from your lips, laying against Cove's chest as he rubbed circles into your sides.

Derek was laying with his head in your lap, letting you run your fingers through- and thoroughly mess up- his hair.

"I don't think so," he chimed.

Cove shook his head, almost trying to convince himself too. "It was his decision to leave, did he seem mad?"

"Well, no, but-" you sighed, anxiety biting away at you as you bit your lip, peeling the skin.

"Mhm! So, it wasn't your fault, or Cove's, or mine. He just wanted to leave. Which personally I think is dumb, who wouldn't want to stay around you two for as long as possible?"

You snorted, letting yourself relax back into Cove for the time being.

So anyways

You see him again another five years later.

Helping your friends plan their wedding on a short notice- perhaps a little too short notice- your own planning stage looming nearby in the distance

Seeing him again..

Well, naturally you tell Cove and Derek

Because what else are you meant to do?

You, unfortunately, drew the short straw to be the one to confront him

"Baxter, hang on- talk to me like a real person, for once." You latched on to his wrist, unwilling to let the moment slip through your fingers. "I get it, you don't want to talk to me. But at least- tell me why you left."

He sighed, not making any move to make you let go. "I do regret leaving Sunset Bird with nary a call to you three, you are still together, no?"

You rolled your eyes. "Yeah and we're getting married, but that's not the point. Bax, I just want you to care enough to tell me why."

"You're..." his steadily widening eyes trailed down to your hand, and sure enough, an engagement ring was sitting comfortably on your ring finger.

He tried tugging his wrist out of your hand.

You held on tighter. "You're gonna tell me what happened so I don't feel like shit about it for the rest of my life, okay?! So I don't have to ask for reassurance that it wasn't my fault every time I remember how you left town. I think I deserve that."

You weren't normally a demanding person, he had to know that. He had to see the way that this all ate at your for the past five years.

You watched his resolve crumble, and it was- weird, seeing him drop the professionalism for even a moment. Weird, but welcome.

"Can we go somewhere private, at least? Perhaps the beach?"

You thought back to the symbol of your life, the beach and the poppy-covered hill behind your house. The same beach and hill you managed to drag him out to stargaze from countless times that summer. The sun was hanging low in the sky.

"I'll drive, you sort out whatever you're about to say." You shrugged, taking the drivers side of his way-too-expensive (in your humble opinion) car.

"Alright," he moved around, sitting in the passenger side. Maybe it was the time you spent with him that long time ago, making you notice the unnoticeable. But he seemed- deflated, a little sad.

It was a quiet night

You could see a bit of disappointment in Baxter's eyes when he looked up to see a cloudy sky, you couldn't help but feel it too

You thought you'd have to push more, but he let out a long sigh

And stared at his hands, almost willing them not to shake

And he started to explain

He was the type to run away, it was ingrained in him

When he realized he was falling for three people all the way back then, he didn't know what to do

The fact that you three were so close knit didn't help

He left because he was scared

What would his family think?

Would he be enough?

Would it end in heartbreak he was trying so hard to avoid? (but, of course, it already ended like that)

Some of his worries were unsaid, he brushed them away with a "I had a lot on my mind, in terms of anxiety"

Truthfully, he thought you would have forgotten about him by now

He realized how much it could have hurt a little while ago, but he thought it would have been so much more likely that he was forgotten- just a blimp in the endless summers you three seemed to spend together

"I would have reached out, if I had known it still haunted you."

His hands were shaking

He clasped them together in an attempt to hide it

They were still shaking, twitching slightly in their hold

He had a crush on you three?

That's why he left and never came back?

You didn't know whether to laugh or scream at the poor man

He wasn't expecting a positive response, of course

But your laugh and yell of "you're a fucking idiot!" felt a little-

unexpected.

"I liked you too, I think those two could have too if you didn't absolutely ditch us."

You leaned on his shoulder, and he made no move to pull away

The scene familiar to an old one, but different

You told him to meet the three of you at a cafe in town

One you used to hang out in all the time

It wasn't a question, but if it was he would have agreed

And the four of you talked

Things were awkward at first, Cove particularly a bit standoffish with him

But you all talked it through

And maybe laughed about how stupid Baxter specifically was back then

He deserved that, he thought

Then a question came up, one he wasn't expecting

Really, the cafe in of itself would have been closure enough for him

But Cove asked if he wanted to go on a date

And Baxter had to shove every instinct and nerve in his body telling him to run away

Because he should be allowed to be happy like this, shouldn't he?

He really didn't know

But he shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth

NOW ONTO THE BIT YOU ACTUALLY ASKED FOR

He helps plan you, Cove, and Derek's wedding of course

He's far more flirty with you and Derek than Cove, respecting the discomfort Cove has had with the flirting in the past

But when Cove doesn't respond negatively to flirting?

You, Baxter, and Derek gang up on him and make him a literal tomato with how red in the face he goes

Derek showering compliments and peppering kisses while Bax makes his trademarked flirty comments, kisses lingering a bit longer

No matter what you do to add to this man's suffering, it certainly will

Speaking of Cove, he's the last to get comfortable with touch

From you it's been fine since you were kids, and he got used to Derek's touch quickly because of how openly affectionate he could be

But Baxter's normal touch, even just holding hands, was both more subtle and somehow more intimate feeling

So Cove struggled to adapt

Which was fine, of course, he could take all the time he needed

Baxter would always ask if he was allowed to touch him, whether the ask be verbal or not

Even long after Cove started saying yes (near) every time

Same goes for you, if you struggle with touch

They're all very respectful and will ask you first, respecting whatever boundary you set

Baxter being introduced into any of your family lives

Is certainly a sight

He's so out of place it's kind of funny

His family's more uptight and formal

So going to meet Derek's family and seeing the siblings bustle about and bicker, not quite caring about looking strange

Or seeing how much like a friend Cliff tries to be to Cove

or even the soft care your moms gave to you, and the teasing you took from Liz

Happy, loving, slightly chaotic families was not what Baxter was used to and it shows

He was hesitant to bring you three to meet his own family because of it

He wasn't even in very good contact with them himself

None of you pushed him on the matter

They weren't a big part of his life anymore, and honestly from some of the stories he's told?

You'd rather die than have to pretend to be that stuffy and pretentious

Derek and Cove cannot go five minutes without cuddling or holding hands

They're very touchy and affectionate with each other and it's not uncommon for you or Bax to come home or walk into the living room, and they're just tangled up together watching a movie and snacking

Cove and Bax love hearing you and Derek ramble

Whatever interests you at the moment, they'll listen to your voices for hours on end even of they have absolutely no chance of understanding it

If one of you seems really into something and it's sticking, they'll even do light research on their own

So they can be better conversation partners

And so that they can hear you talk more

It melts your heart when they do that for one of you

Or for each other

When the four of you are all cuddling together, Bax likes being the center of it the most

Nine times out of ten if you ask where he wants to be it's pressed against the three of you

Cove likes being on the outer edge, usually

He can get claustrophobic when he's surrounded on all sides, so he's probably on the side of the bed away from the wall too

Occasionally he's having a particularly clingy day and wants to be held by all of you, so long as one side of him (even just his back or front) is free

Derek's happy so long as he's holding a minimum of one person at all times

You can figure out where you'd place yourself in these cuddle piles <3

I can see Liz and Bax being a bit tense at first and you kinda think they hate each other

But when you ask one of them it's revealed that no they actually adore the banter between the two

Baxter and Derek have such potential between the two of them

The suave and semi-formal man and our beloved golden retriever

Derek would "con" the three of you into playing games together

One time it was a sport

That was the day

A.) You got to see Bax all sweaty, and that did things to you

B.) Bax almost passed out

He's not built for running or working out I'm sorry dude

Derek's generally very affectionate

Even just casually with an arm around you, he's always being touchy

Usually in the most innocent way

Usually

Cove likes less obvious PDA

Hand holding or brushing shoulders or even hugging

He doesn't like initiating kisses when you're out

Because he already spontaneously combusts when you do it

He can't fight down his flusterment when he knows other people could see him get embarrassed

Speaking of

He gets embarrassed easily

My man can give a kiss to a cheek and then will hide his blushing face in their chest

He gets a little better about it as time goes on

But he's still very shy

It's adorable <3

Baxter likes to hold you close to him, arm around your waist style

Almost like he's showing you off

Like any of the three of you

When you're out and about it's like he's showing you guys off to the world like

He's happy to call the three of you his <3

[packcoventhing]

I find it actually hilarious that when me and @starance are talking about Aphverse it's all fate and breaking cycles and soulmates and the divine warriors and reincarnation and the group were destined to find each other

And when we talk about Voltron it's effectively "this group of dumbasses (+ us) found a lion in a desert and now GODDAMNIT we have to save the universe??" There is absolutely zero fate involved it's just a bunch of idiots

[starance]

You ever create a group of OC's and then just go absolutely feral over them??? I am foaming at the mouth over these little critters and how their minds work I am mentally well wdym????

[starance]

⤷ WORD COUNT 712

⤷ TAGS FLUFF, Domestic fluff ofc, small mention of drugs but it's a one time thing-

⤷ NOTES OMG HI ANON!! :D I CAN ABSOLUTELY DO THAT FOR YOU! <3 also, you didn't specify gender so I went with gender-neutral hope you don't mind!

Okay, so Seb as a dad is like- the fluffiest man in existence second to Alex-

This man will sob over every small achievement your little angel makes but he wouldn't dare let you see (sam will watch this man breakdown in joy over the kid's first steps-)

He will happily support anything his kid wishes to do no matter what!

They wanna do Ballet? Go for it!

Soccer? Absolutely!

Do drugs? Oh- uh don't do that-

And he is so gentle with the kid as well, his patience knows no bounds after dealing with the step-father I refuse to name.

He wants to be a better father and overall parent than his own and will take his time helping them grow into a wonderful person.

He is also very sweet with teaching the kids and honestly seeing this man interact with even one child makes you want a bajillion more no matter how messy they are

"There we go sweetie, make sure to clean it up alright?" Your heart aches as you watch him softly wipe the paint off of your child's face-- that they somehow managed to get tangled into Sebastian's hair as well.

"That's a good look on you Sebby." you taunt playfully as the little rascal he was cleaning runs from his arms screaming cheerfully at their escape.

A soft sigh escapes his lips as he watched them roll around in the paint more. They were definitely going to need a bath tonight. You laugh and press a kiss to his cheek before heading out to check on the farm.

AAAAAAAAAAAA SEB FLUFF IS THE BEST OMG-

He will make sure that both he and the little rascal help light your load working on the farm as well, with the kid petting all of the animals and Seb helping to collect a few items you need to be shipped in time.

Overall all the help and domesticity is too much for all of our hearts.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND/OR HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

[packcoventhing]

BBG polycule (Aaron x Aphmau x Zoey) for the win!

How I handle it is I simply: ignore canon and make up my own shit <3

I have some things in my notes app about Aarmau specifically, @starance @romeave-wives-club <- thank you Cam for part of the MCD section

(These bullet points don't primarily or at all include Zoey because that a.) wasn't the point of them and b.) was before we landed on bbg polycule as Aph's endgame)

(This was written over a year ago, and isn't the final product or progression of these two- it was more "what we could have had" for canon)

(I cannot emphasize how much this is subject to change and how I'd probably cringe at different parts of this if I weren't too tired to reread it)

MCD

- From what we gather, it was very quick canonically which.. Aaron's character would need a slower build up

- So after he first reveals his face to Aph, he's still distant from everyone

- They have small moments of bonding, of building trust

- Aph is the first to actually be interested romantically, despite being the last to realize

- Because Aph doesn't understand that getting flustered does not equal being in love

- Anyways, Aph falls in love with these small moments but Aaron

- Aaron just feels like it's a friendship building

- Like, trust

- He's starting to trust her slowly

- And.. maybe he's staying around Phoenix Drop for more than "I'm worried" reasons

- Maybe he likes playing with the children

- How Hanae throws him apples as if he doesn't know they're from her

- How Dmitri bothers him about how to get strong

- And Donna's grateful for his help with Rollo, Lello, and especially Luca

- And yeah okay, maybe his- friend- was nice too

- Besides, someone needed help in the Irene dimension

- And how it happened.. he crushed any thoughts that Lily and Jacob could have had similar, because no that was impossible-

- No use getting his hopes up for anything else.

- But everyone in the Village got used to him being around

- He became a member of the community

- Newcomers would ask who the brooding dude was and Dante would give a smile and say "Oh that's Aaron, he's a great help with new guards"

- Or they'd ask Donna and get "oh Aaron! He's a great babysitter"

- "Hanae and Dmitri love him, don't tell anyone but I saw him baking with Hanae the other day," Nana would giggle

- He was part of the village, even if he didn't admit it

- Back to the relationship aspect though

- He realized, slowly, that he liked the village

- He trusted them, mostly

- And he kept by Aphmau's side, he wanted to help the alliance

- He couldn't help but think that if it had existed before..

- He needed to stop thinking about the past. It was done, over, gone and burnt

- No sense thinking of what-ifs

- And slowly the sense of trust to Aphmau

- Turned to a bit more

- He recognized it early

- He tried to squash it

- It was so achingly similar to how he felt around Lily

- After a while he just..

- Couldn't push it down

- Not to himself

- After he couldn't just ignore it all together, he insisted to himself it was just because she reminded him of Lily

- He sorta distanced himself from Aph, much to her- hurt?

- Yeah, she was hurt

- And Aaron was beating himself up because of his shit communication skills

- And he didn't like that, in his opinion, he fell in love with Aph because of her resemblance to Lily

- Eventually Laurance confronts him because Aphmau is upset because of you

- So he puts his big boy pants on and talks to her

- In the most vulnerable state she's ever seen him be in

- It's a messy monologue about his late wife and son, his time with her and Phoenix Drop, and- his feelings for Aphmau

- Which made him realize it was not because of her and Lily being similar

- Because the more he talked about Aph

- The more he realized, she wasn't like Lily at all.

- Aphmau was loud and hyper in comparison to Lily's quiet and calm.

- And they were both kind but Aphmau was also incredibly selfish and would choose who she loved over what's best for the situation.

- She really wasn't Lily, she was Aphmau

- Lily would always stay in his heart, he could make some space for Aphmau too, he supposed

- It ended in "oh Irene, I'm sorry."

- His head hung low because he was so ashamed

- And Aphmau- she had some things to think about

- But first: she tried to comfort him

- And he kept telling her not to, it wasn't her problem. She had Laurance and Garroth to think about-

- But the thing is, she wasn't sure she felt anything more than friendship for those two

- But Aaron?

- The guy who seemed so tough but had so many soft spots?

- She- she couldn't tell

- She reassured him. "No, I want to do this. Not under any moral obligation, but because at the very least- you're my friend Aaron, even if I don't know if I love you like- that," she mumbled the last bit

- And Aaron just kinda

- Started crying in her arms

- And despite their foot hight difference, Aaron seemed so small in that moment

- Neither were sure how to proceed

- But Aaron hadn't been that vulnerable in- a long time

- It brought them that bit closer to each other

- Aph took a few days to think

- And talk to Laurance

- And to Garroth when she could-

- And Laurance wasn't as upset as he expected for some reason?

- And Garroth's reaction had been cut short by the "dream" ending

- So that was shoved away for the time being

- And she talked to Dante, Logan, Nana, and Donna

- And Aph realized

- Oh

- That's what love feels like?

- oh

MyStreet

- Yes, the FC and Shu plot point is staying

- No, Aaron is not a super senior

- Aphmau is a sophomore, Aaron is a junior with a son

- They meet in werewolf class

- And Aaron feels a responsibility for her

- They were the only- "human" people in class

- And she was so damn naïve

- She was going to get hurt, he didn't like innocent people getting hurt

- But he didn't have to be nice to her to be responsible for her

- He shoved past any conversation attempts, focusing solely on his studying and his son

- And maybe, occasionally, his friend Shu and their RPG games

- He texted her a lot, actually

- One time some rando on a game asked if he loved her

- He laughed and said no, she was just his gaming buddy

- But that was besides the point

- Aph and him would banter and argue a lot

- And Aaron was generally pissy

- But they became somewhat friends

- And, much to Aaron's displeasure, Aph babysat Jacob, under the guise of it being his younger brother

- The guise didn't last long, considering Jacob called Aaron "dad" once he was old enough to be talking

- He almost always stayed after school

- He loved Jacob, he did

- But he couldn't deal with his son and his parents at the same time

- So he stayed at school until Melissa texted that their parents were gone

- He also studied a lot

- But sometimes he'd play guitar

- A soft and sweet melody

- Behind a closed door with his phone resting close

- And...

- One day, as he felt a notification ring from Shu

- Looking to FC for comfort

- Looking to him for comfort

- He realized maybe he could be more than emotionally distant

- The idea was nice in theory, anyways

- He helped her

- She was in a new environment

- Some guys kissed her???

- And she seemed so.. lost

- His best friend was lost

- And scared that she ruined all the relationships she spent time building

- She was so lost and scared

- And he couldn't help but want her to smile

- He put the guitar down, moving to lean against the door and keep talking to her

- Calming her

- Clearing her thoughts and helping her organize them

- Maybe this could work

- Maybe he did love her.

- And then..

- The notifications rang off

- He heard it through the door first, brushing it off

- But then Shu noticed it

- And oh fuck she was behind that door

- "Do you want me to open it?"

- "I think I do, is that wrong? (ﾒ﹏ﾒ)"

- That damn face-

- He took a deep breath, opening the door and-

- You?!

- It was..

- No, that was impossible

- This girl was hyperactive and bratty and naïve and so fucking annoying and Shu was-

- Shu was snarky, teasing, adorable, smart, funny, hyper...

- Fuck

- She was Shu

- Aphmau is Shu

- Aphmau demanded answers

- Cue canon "you can't be FC!" "I am-" "but I don't like you!" "You.. don't like FC?" "No! I don't like Aaron, I love FC." Etc etc

- Aaron just packed his things at that

- he couldn't stand that she hated him, and he was a highschool boy what do you expect

- He ran away

- That's all he knew how to do

- Maybe it was something he was taught

- To run away, hide his problems, and sulk

- But he got a few texts

- "FC"

- "No, Aaron"

- "Can.. we talk about it?"

- "I don't want to lose you too"

- "Please"

- "I'll even use your stupid face if you respond"

- "See? 8D"

- His eyes kept repeating over his name

- This wasn't a fucking dream

- He replied, slowly and calculated

- "I think Aphmau's annoying, Shu.."

- "But I love you."

- "Erm, as friends, I think?"

- Aphmau sniffled, realizing she got a response and-

- He was in the same boat as her?

- The conflicting opinions crashing against each other

- He had them too?

- "I don't know how to feel about you right now, Aaron"

- He sighed, continuing to type as his pace slowed from a fast-walk to a pause

- "Same, lol"

- "But.. maybe Aphmau could be cooler than I thought."

- "I mean, Jacob likes her"

- Aphmau laughed, walking out of school with tears in her eyes

- And Aaron looked back at her

- She ran over.

- "Dickhead! This is so- weird-"

- "Yeah.. you know, I didn't expect you to actually look like a potato"

- "FC!"

- Cue the rest of the canon scene

- And they laughed together

- And for one day, Aaron stayed away from studying after school

- He went to get ice cream with.. Shu? Aphmau?

- And they talked

- Like they did in their games

- He felt.. less lonely

- And more normal

- Of course, Melissa texted him to come home

- But his schedule shifted

- He hang out with Aphmau occasionally

- And joined voice calls for their game

- And she was still his friend

- And when he distanced himself in college, she was more concerned

- Because they had stayed friends throughout her senior year

- But when he heard she was going to Falcon Claw..

- He ran away again

- Only it wasn't by choice

- He had a son, and his parents didn't want another girl in his life

- It would be too dangerous

- Still..

- They passed notes

- He snuck out

- He got moments of normalcy in college

- And Aph didn't fully understand what was happening with him

- But she offered support when she could

- She gave him this- stupid, stupid book of uplifting messages handwritten by her

- One for every day

- With specific dates

- Covered in stickers

- And that dumb anime character she liked

- Why was she like this?

- But.. by junior year of college

- When Aaron had a lucky paid internship at a programming company

- And finally having disconnected himself and Jacob from his parents financially

- He told her how he felt

- A simple

- "Aphmau Shalashaska, our friendship has been hell. In a good way, like fighting with you in our games" "Yeah! I have to keep healing you, idiot." "Ouch, but fair- my point is. Do you want to be the Asuna to my Kirito?"

- And Aph nearly fell to the ground laughing because oh mygod only Aaron would choose the sword art online reference to get her to laugh

- Then it donned on her what she was laughing at and she gave him a confused look

- "My girlfriend." "Oh.. yes! Idiot, yes."

- And they start dating

- And Aaron isn't integrated into the group yet by the time they graduate

- But Aaron an Aph live in a duplex together

- Telling the group that it was cheeper than each of them renting their own house

- Plus they were only connected by one door

- And the rest is history

- *Literally*, they make history

- But that's another story

One thing you must understand about our rewrite (/hj) is it's polyamorous as hell, us and @starance / @romeave-wives-club refuse to choose between some ships

Examples include:

Aph x Aaron x Zoey <- bbg polycule

Dante x Nicole x Nana x Michi <- cosplay polycule

Gene x Sasha x Zenix <- rebel polycule

Travis x Katelynn x Lucinda x Jeffory <- gem polycule

Ein x Blaze x Kai x Vylad x Sol (self indulgent as hell, but this is for fun sooo) <- feral polycule

Bonus points: MCD!Garroth, Malik, and Matilda had a triad pre-series <3

Because listen I am a simple creature, I like relationships and romance, I am polyamorous, and this Aphverse Rewrite is my pet project

(The focus isn't romance, it's just an aspect)

Feel free to ask about any of the dynamics though, they're always fun to talk about 🙏
